PHP Message Board

I have noticed that this forum looks remarkably like this one. Is there a program that lets you setup these forums? I've seen a few free ones but I like the look of this forum and straightdope's the most.

Is this free software?

i think this is a customized phpbb. i've tried in a LAN and it works great. U can get it here: http://www.phpbb.com/

As it states at the bottom of each page, this forum is based off of vBulletin. They have two versions I know of, a free stripped down version and one that costs money.
Though I believe jeremy paid for this when he created this site, it has been highly hacked to LQ's needs, etc.

haha Trickykid you are much more observant then I am. I've never noticed that. Sorry. You can beat me with a stick if you want.

Yeah, it seems VBulletin and PHPBB are the two most popular, at least in all the forums I frequent.
